Bobbi Brown Rich Lip Color SPF 12, $25 Tester: Kristen Oldham Giordani, Executive Editor
Rating: 8
What she thought: "I'll ask myself some FAQs for your sake. Ready? OK. So self, does it last? Yes, I only had to reapply it twice in a longer-than-12-hour day. Is it drying? Surprisingly, not really. Though the pigments are intense and gorgeous (I tested the Sweet Nectar hue, a warm, coral shade which garnered many compliments), thanks to the 'colorless base' it feels lightweight and slightly moisturizing on your lips. How many shades does it come in? 12, from a bubblegum pinky hue to a deep crimson color. Any other redeeming qualities? Yes, it contains SPF 12, so that one area on your face that often gets forgotten where sunscreen is concerned will now be covered. Pretty great, huh?"

Thanks for the guide. I'm a big fan of the CoverGirl Lipperfections.

Very surprised that Lipstick Queen was not on the list. Most other lists always includes them because of their pigment. I was intrigued by Jouer.
